Are you planning to work or live in a GCC country? GAMCA (Gulf Approved Medical Centers Association) medical examination is a mandatory step. Booking a GAMCA appointment is required for all individuals traveling to Gulf countries such as Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman or UAE for employment, residence or family visa purposes.
Now with the online appointment system, the process is simpler and more transparent. Applicants must register through the official GAMCA (now Wafid) portal by entering personal details, passport information and visa type. After submission, the system automatically assigns a medical center based on your location and availability.
Why GAMCA Appointment is important:
- It ensures you are scheduled at an approved medical center.
- Prevents delays or rejections due to missing or misplaced documents.
- Helps maintain records and updates for your visa process.
Do not forget to carry your appointment slip, passport and passport size photograph on the day of the medical test. The results are usually uploaded on the Wafid portal and shared with the concerned consulate or employer.
